    He says he wants to move to L.A. because of the criticisms he received from Froch and Murray. His interview has given me the impression that the majority of the boxing community in England does not really appreciate him. I like Khan. I think he's really going to go far w/ Roach as his trainer.

    There has to be more to this than meets the eye. Any opinions on the real reason/reasons why he might move to the U.S.?

    It's common sense to move really. His gym and trainer are in L.A, the other reasons are just fueling his decision.

    i agree it is common sense for him to move nearer his trainer ,but he should say and be honest not use others to make up an excuse so he dont look bad to some of his fans

    I'd be suprised if he did go permanent, the idea that he's going because of Murray and Froch having a pop is laughable.

    His family are pretty close and involved in his career so unless he's dropping them and Warren moving for good seems unlikely.

    I agree.:good
    A friend of mine (from London) says that the only way to make big bucks is to live, train and fight in the U.S. I told him Hatton did pretty good in making a name for himself and he never had to move anywhere. Granted, there's no comparison between Khan's and Hatton's careers.
